That is a really nifty breakdown. No more guesswork.

A few interesting things from that picture: regen isn't as strong as I'd hoped for a car with such a large battery. The Insight's regen is puny, at just shy of 10kW. This car is twice as heavy, has 30 times the battery capacity, and apparently only three times as much regen.

Also, at idle, the Leaf looks like it's using 200W in this photo. That's about the same as the Insight.
